Guys,

My 914 has issues. The driver's side turn signal some time works, some time does not. When the signal does not work--both turn signal arrows in the tach will blink. When it does work, only the right arrow will blink. WTF? I presume this is a wiring issue? How do I fix this?

Greg very appropriate thread for me also. Today I installed my front turn signal buckets and everything works except the driver's side parking light. I switched the bulbs, no change. Then switched the buckets, no change. Both blinkers are working. It appears that there is a loose wire somewhere in the harness. I guess I'll have to check the continuity between the bucket and the fuse panel and go from there. Hopefully you'll be able to trace your problem also, good luck...

BTW, the bulbs are dual element types, with the pins at different heights. Remove the metal base from the socket and take it to your FLAPS, they should have some in stock.
